Important Information |
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
•Carefully read this manual for important safety information and operating instructions before using your vehicle.
•Please complete and return the enclosed Vehicle Registration Card, or call 1-800-348-0751 to register your vehicle by phone.
•The Kawasaki® ZX-7 is designed for use by children 11/2 - 4 years.
•Adult assembly is required.
•This vehicle uses a Power Wheels® Type H battery with a Power Wheels® 25 amp fuse and a Power Wheels® Type H 6 volt charger (120 VAC 60 HZ 28W with an output of 6 VDC 1200 mA). Do not substitute any other battery, fuse or charger.
•Before first-time use, charge the battery for at least 18 hours. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.
•After the first charge, charge the battery a minimum of 18 hours after each use. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.
•Do not run down the battery completely before charging.
•Leaving the battery in a discharged condition will ruin it.
•Charge the battery before storing your vehicle.
•Charge the battery at least once per month, even if the vehicle has not been used.
•Do not store the battery in temperatures above 75˚ F or below -10˚ F.
•Even with proper care, the battery will not last forever. The life of the battery depends on how well you follow the Battery Care instructions and the total number of hours the battery is used. Please refer to the Battery Handling/Care/Disposal instructions on page 26 for detailed information about battery care.
•To purchase a Power Wheels® Type H battery, Power Wheels® 25 amp fuse or a Power Wheels® Type H
6 volt charger, please contact:
-the store where your vehicle was purchased.
-an Authorized Service Center (see Authorized Service Center list beginning on page 35).
-Power Wheels® Consumer Affairs at 1-800-348-0751.
•While the battery is charging, the charger may become warm to the touch. This is normal, and does not indicate a problem.
•The Kawasaki® ZX-7 is suitable for use on asphalt, cement or other hard surfaces. To prevent damage to the motor and switches, do not operate the vehicle on loose dirt, gravel or sand.
•The Kawasaki® ZX-7 is not designed for use on grass or hills. For best traction, use only on asphalt, cement, or other flat, hard surfaces.
•To prevent damage to electrical components, store the Kawasaki® ZX-7 inside or under a protective cover during snowy or rainy weather. Do not leave the Kawasaki® ZX-7 out in the rain or let your child wash it with soap and water.
•The Kawasaki® ZX-7 has a special circuit-breaker in the wiring to protect the motor and electrical system. If the vehicle is put under extreme load (driving on rough surfaces, too much weight, climbing too steep of an incline), the circuit-breaker will shut the electrical system down for up to 20 seconds. If the system repeatedly shuts down, the driving conditions may be too demanding (ie: too steep or too much weight).
•Metal parts have been coated with a lubricant to protect them during shipment. Wipe all metal parts with a paper towel to remove any excess lubricant.

First-Time Battery Charging |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We recommend that you begin charging your battery before beginning assembly of your |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
vehicle. Your new battery must be charged for at least 18 hours before using your vehicle for |
|
|
|
|
|
the first time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
WARNING |
|
|
|
|
|
|
•The battery must be handled by adults only.
•Never allow children to charge the battery. Battery charging must be done by adults only. A child could be injured by the electricity involved in charging the battery.
•Use of the wrong type battery, fuse or charger could cause a fire or explosion, resulting in serious injury.
•Children can be harmed by small parts, sharp edges and sharp points in the vehicle’s unassembled state, or by electrical items. Care should be taken in unpacking and assembly of the vehicle. Children should not handle the battery or other parts, or help in assembly.
•Never permit a child to handle the battery. The battery is heavy and contains sulfuric acid (electrolyte), and if dropped, could result in serious injury. Read the cautions on the back panel of the battery.
•Never lift or carry the battery by the wires or connector. This can damage the battery and possibly cause a fire. Lift and carry the battery by the case only.
•Examine the battery, charger and their connectors for excessive wear or damage each time you charge the battery. If damage or excessive wear is detected, do not use the charger or the vehicle until you have replaced the worn or damaged part.
•Never alter this vehicle or its electrical system in any way. Alterations could cause a fire resulting in injury and could also ruin the electrical system.
•Never add unauthorized parts to the vehicle or use substitute parts. Use only specified Power Wheels® replacement parts.
CAUTION
